1. Does this mean I need to have a previous version B 4 this will work. 2. Does it take care of copy write issues?

You do not have to have a previous version for ver 7 to work.Copyright issues? Don't really understand what you are asking but 1) it will copy copy protected tapes 2) it does not place a copy protect on the disc 3) it does not give a license to copy copyrighted material.

From the complaints I've heard I'm wondering about this as well. But they seemed to have a launched an online version. They may have gone to services from the web. I'm not sure if it is intended as a full replacement, but I wonder what it means for me as I have my records from 1999 and want to keep it intact.

OEM versions are licensed for use on the machine it was originally installed on and cannot be transferred. Technically it is supposed to be installed on new hardware only. Retail copies (either full or upgrade) can be transferred to another machine as long as it's only in use on one at a time.

Thanks for the info in re do-it-yourself upgrading to 2GB. I have a HP 210-1040 NR and would like to try an upgrade but would need at least basic instructions before I opened up my computer. Are such available, as far as you know? Thanks.

Yes, but if you ever want to go back to the earlier version you won't be able to reverse the process. I hope that helps.

I don't know anything about the older version so I can't help you, sorry. New is good?

As far as I know yes... It converts all of my documents from Microsoft word 2010. That's the oldest version I have, use, and know of for sure.

Theoretically you may have to buy newer versions though I am still using version 11 and it is still receiving updates so it really boils down to when they decide to stop updating the older versions. In my experience it seems like you will at least get about 4 years out of it, but probably more than that, most newer bluray discs I have seen don't use the newer versions of bluray copy protection anyways. Personally I'm going to upgrade to 14 because after using the trial I found it opens alot faster than 11 and seems to be a smoother experience. Also 11 doesn't work in win 8 media center, I don't blame power dvd though because win 8 wasn't out when I bought it and it worked fine in win 7.

I am using "Microsoft Office Professional 2013" and it is working great. I am very happy with it. It even let you use the Pen Tool for drawing or signatures within Microsoft Word. It can handle any latest version of Microsoft Office as of now so I don't think you have to worry about it. Just buy the one you can afford and make sure the features you will be using the most are enabled in that version.

Hi Greg, This is an upgrade. You must have an earlier version installed, or, I think, the serial number from an earlier version. I'm an Engineer and a Realtor. I write all kinda of databases to streamline my life and business. Don't know what I'd do without it. It should be a standard on every computer.

Mine could... and it 'should'... since all the 1.44 diskette read/writers were backward compatible. I'd heard 'they' bought these off the used market and put them in a 'USB Box'--- So, the original DD read/writers are ancient---- they went out quick in favor of the 1.44's that were backward compatible. Also, there's a Driver that comes with it you may/may-not need. So--- it 'should', mine did... but I can't promise you 100.00% anything. :-)

The most important thing to know is that with an OEM version your user license will not transfer to a new PC and if you upgrade too many of the components the OS will consider that a different PC. If you ever plan on upgrading your hardware, buy the retail version.

I have not had any of these problems. I have a Mac, so, I am not cloning. There is cloning software for the PC only, that is included. I use the Syba to show 2 separate hard drives on my desktop, & move info & pictures back & forth, storage, etc. I have not had any "bad segments" to copy. It does not correct anything that I know of.

You shouldn't have any problem. I have used FTM for years and generally upgrade about every two versions. It is generally seamless. I am using FTM12 now and had no problem upgrading.

3.0 is the best, it took me a long expensive while to find a new disk, 4.0 isn't bad, both by same authors. After that nothing communicates with past versions, and commands are horrible. Problem is, need to find compatibility mode to run, Bouderbund needs to get the ORIGINAL guys back together to write a new version of 3.!!!

I've experienced no problems with backward compatibility in my system. (I even have a SCSI drive networked to the LaCie 3, and it works great!)

".......with Windows 8.1?"&gt;&gt;Don't see any reason why not. It's an electro-mechanical switch. It doesn't know what your running nor does it care. "Can same copy of Windows be loaded on each drive?"&gt;&gt;Anytime you install a Windows OS from a disk to a drive as a new install you are risking key number and activation issues. It reads the HDD serial number and MB type etc and thinks it's a new machine. Clone your existing HDD's. You shouldn't have any issues. I cloned my primary HDD to another HDD of the same brand and specs (bought them both at the same time) and I have had zero issues with activation etc when I boot to the clone. I don't like "back-ups". I do a full blown clone at least once a month or even less. So far, so good. The other 4 channels on the Orico are devoted to Linux OS's. Hope this helps.
